Phornirunlit loves to use props and switch them out for different looks (play "spot the difference" with this image and the one above to see how he does this). "Real men are not afraid of pink!" he says. He found these larger-than-life poodles in Mexico and had quite a time in customs convincing officials not to cut them open. "They were packed in boxes with their heads sticking out!" he laughs. Luckily, they made it across the border intact.The sofas and chairs are from Crate and Barrel, and the tripod lamp with the faux-feathered shade is from Thailand. The dog-related pillows and trays in this image are by Naked Decor.

PoochyHow many of us have living rooms that are unforgettable? I'm sure if you were invited to this home near Washington, D.C., you would never, ever forget the pink poodles.A tacky object that's taken out of context can feel playful and ironic when the surroundings are right. If this room weren't so sophisticated, the dogs would just look gaudy.

Run for your life …Giant pink poodles are haunting your house: They drank out of a radioactive toilet or something, and now they’re big and pink and their teeth are supersharp, so unless you want your leg to become a giant rawhide, get the hell out now!
